An 84-year-old woman died of hypothermia during Texas’ unusual winter storm on Feb.16. Burglars then ransacked the dead woman’s home.

According to ABC-13, the woman’s granddaughter, Nicale Spencer, said police officers discovered Mary Gee’s body inside her Houston apartment after her heat and electricity had been disconnected on Monday.

“For somebody to freeze to death is… I’m always cold. So, just for that coldness to sit in my body that long for me to pass from it, that’s just a hard way to go,” Spencer told ABC-13. “It’s almost like suffering, and it’s just sad.”

A day later, her family disclosed that a thief stole some of her belongings from the Northshore Meadows apartment complex, including a stereo, her cellphone and her son’s army paraphernalia. The family hopes that police will catch the culprit.

“The stuff was just ransacked and thrown,’ her stepdaughter, Rachel Cook, told the news outlet. “I really don’t care about that stuff. I cared about her.” 

Cook also lamented over what Gee went through before her tragic death.

“It bothers me deeply,” the stepdaughter expressed. “I mean, you don’t know what happened to her within those hours.”

Gee’s death compounded the family’s grief. The woman was affectionately known as “Mama Mary,” had just lost her son earlier in the month to COVID-19. 

The family has scheduled a funeral for the woman at 10 a.m. on March 3. 

The Washington Post reported that the deadly winter storm has now killed over 30 people in Texas. The deaths have been attributed to hypothermia and carbon monoxide poisoning. The unprecedented cold front has also led to mass power outages and blackouts throughout the state.
